It’s Spring and these Whole Grain Churro Waffles will make you want to SING!

Isn’t it just beautiful when the blossoms start creeping up from those first flowers? Hallelujah! I’ve just been in the mood and it’s such a great time of year. Easter coming around the corner, new life everywhere.

And with thoughts of Easter comes…..well, breakfast and brunch! AND WAFFLES. Ok, lots of other things, too, but I’m talking foodie style here. This is a food blog, right? I was having a fantabulous idea the other day and came across the idea of churro-i-fying my waffles (yes, that’s a word, k?) And boy, they are YUM.

A couple of things that make this recipe great – the buttermilk, and the white wheat flour. The buttermilk gives the waffles such a tender center, while still making sure the outside is nice and crisp. The flour, to health them up a little bit but keep it real for those who are afraid of the words: whole grain. If you don’t have this flour, it’s easy to substitute just general all-purpose flour, no prob.

So, without further adieu, a quick share of the latest creation that may just want to make it’s way into your home and heart this next week.
